Red Lobster owner meets ESG goals


It’s a fresh milestone in the burgeoning market for bonds linked to environmental, social and governance goals. — Bloomberg

Thai Union Group Pcl has met the sustainability goals and therefore is lowering the coupon on bonds maturing in 2026, 2028 and 2031, according to letters seen by Bloomberg.
